Those crimes don't concern too many "leftists". What concerns them are the imagined crimes against humanity that might be perpetuated by what I call the civilized countries because although these countries are not at all perfect--far from it--you can go on the street and protest and not expect to be shot or go to jail and be gang raped or have your skin peeled off of you....
